Bibliography of Works by David Speiser David Speiser and the Baptistery of Pisa, 1996 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF WORKS BY DAVID SPEISER1 The bibliography is composed of four parts: 1. an index of the scientific and a few philosophical publications; 2. an index of public lectures and other publications belonging to various fields, mostly historical; 3. an index of works edited with a scientific introduction by the author alone or together with P. Radelet-de Grave; 4. an index of works edited by the Bernoulli Edition during the time when Dr. Speiser was in charge of the Edition, first as editor of Daniel Bernoulli, then as general editor of the Bernoulli Edition. The letter [RR] after some items refers to polygraphed Recueil, in which some conferences were collected and distributed to my colleagues and former students. 1 Scientific publications D.

Radelet-de Grave, to whom the author is indebted. 2 This paper contains independent discovery of the global symmetry SU(3), distributed in the sprint of 1961 through preprints from the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, New Jersey, USA. cf.: A. Pais, Inward Bound (Oxford: Clarendon Press), 556. A. Pais, with whom I had many discussions about these questions, was then a permanent member of the IAS. cf. also my remarks at the conference “Symmetries in Physics 1600-1980,” San Feliu, 1983, following the conference by M. Gell-Mann, p.552, where A. Pais was also present. 196 Bibliography for David Speiser J.-P. Antoine and D. Speiser. 1964. Characters of the irreducible representations of the simple groups: II.
